How do the train cars hook together?

They are magnetic. This is the same way that Thomas or Brio connect so the cars are all interchangeable

You can keep them all together, but you must disconnect the heads so that you could pull them and lead them towards their connections. Just like picture shows.

yes, they do. The newer tracks come with a supplementary piece that allows you to connect them with the old ones. Teh trains work just fine on both.

2 hook onto the car. There is a high and low side on the car. Then one hooks onto the tank of R134a

its as simple as putting snapping two Lego pieces together. Theres a small plastic piece that you wedge between the tracks. Works just fine.

Yep! You have to connect the tubes using the Crittertrail connectors though.

There is a circle piece that easily hooks into the front and turns with a dial. It has the same "holes" as any track piece if you just want a few doors hooked up to tracks. Yes the back is open so kids can "fix" the trains with the tools on strings so they don't get lost.

That's my understanding for how the product line is intended to work. I know all of the cars work on all of the other sets but I am not familiar with the Train Station. The other sets will connect to the Train Station set but I don't know if the Train Station tracks are specific to the Train Car or not. I'd suggest contacting them directly just to be sure: E-mail: vtechkids@vtechkids.com Phone: 1.800.521.2010

Pretty simple. Either make an oval shape or an shape like and 8. Connect all the pieces, there should be a total of 6 straight piece and the rest angle type. Insert each end together, metal looking end. Once you connected them together, at each connection place the small plastic clips. This help from pulling apart. Then you have the yellow railing, put those on the turns. The gray pieces acts as bridge. When inserting the clips and railing you connect them front bottom up. Almost as if they snap together. By this time you should have one of the track where the batteries are, plug the remotes as long as you have batteries you're almost done. Place the car on the track and make sure the metal strip under the cars are folded backward as to make contact with metal part of track. Hope it helps. This will take sometime getting the cars to stay on the track they are fast and tent to jump the track. If they get bored the Ikea mats will keep them entertain longer. All the best

Take the trains completely off the track. Next, make sure each track is securely attached to the other track. It must snap and there can be no spaces.Finally carefully place the trains on the tracks. Line them up perfectly. That should solve the problem

Thanks for the amswer how would it connect I would want to incorporate it with the rails tho.

If the two types of track are the same color; they attach perfectly. If they are not the same color, they still attach but it might take some effort.

no other train cars, but you can purchase separate ones that work with track, pretty sure all of them have the smart technology when they hit that certain part in the track, but the other vehicles don't move on their own, they do make noise and have to be pushed

Make sure all the sections of rail are fitted together very, very tightly. And all wheels of all cars, as well as the engine, are totally on the rails.

Yes and no. If they are all Trackmaster, they theoritically fit together. But the shapes matter. So if the shapes and curves are not designed to make a full circle or a closed loop of sorts, they wont. But the basic tracks will fit together.

The locomotive is all metal. The passenger cars are mostly plastic, but they are nice. I imagine plastic makes the cars lighter and makes for easier and smoother pulling by the locomotive. Train set is well made in my opinion. I am very happy with it.

There should be an electrical box that attaches to the tracks, that connects to the control box, the control box cord plugs into the wall. If that is missing, maybe a hobby-train shop would sell something like it? Hopefully you can get it working because it really is a cool train.
